When separating /offboarding an employee, we need to update the "Reason for Exit".


The Reason for Exit has 5 options in the drop-down:

 

  • Absconding
  • Cessation/Resigned/Termination
  • Death in Service
  • Permanent Disability
  • Retirement
  • Superannuation

This has relevance when you will have to file the PF monthly returns. On selecting a particular option, the corresponding alphabet would appear in the PF ECR file while filing the Monthly Returns.
